by they may be turned up to expose a calendar for each month and when soturned up provlde on them reverse side, which. 1s exposed by turning up,a convenient memoranda pad on which the user may keep vari':

ous memoranda pertaining tohis business.

One of the objects of my invention .is to provide a pad of the abovecharacter having means which will retain theturned up sheets in positionwhen so raised without the use of additional clips or unnecessaryparts.-

Another object-of my invention is to provide a calendar of the abovecharacter hav ing a cover for the turned up leaves or sheets which coveralso provides a means for supporting a pencil and loose leaf memoranda.

For the purpose of disclosingmy invention I have illustrated oneembodiment thereof in the accompanying drawings in which,

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a calendar embodying my invention;

Fig. 2 is an enlarged sectional view thereof, and s Fig. 3 is aperspective View showing the same in its folded condition.

In the embodiment of the invention illustrated I provide a backing 1which is preferably formed of stiffer paper than that used for thecalendar pad portion of the calendar and is preferably scored or creasedalong the line 2 so that the same may be folded over into book form.-

This backing forms a support for the 2 to the back 1 in back leaf sothat a single sheet in its entirety carries the imprint of two months onits opposite face. one month appearing on one side and the other monthon the other side at the opposite ends of the sheet, while the spacedirectly opposite on the other side, of the sheet from the monthlyillustration provides a incumranda space 5 which may be ruled and bcarany indicia desired. a

The upper or top ed e of the backing sheet 1, is stiffened by a oldedrib of metal 6 folded onto the edge of the backing sheet and this ribalso secures inposition to the top of the backing sheet, a cover sheet 7which is formed of a single sheet of material folded on the/line 8 andhaving its free ends secured at the top by the stiffening rib 6. Thisarrangement not only stiffcns the cover sheet 7 but also provides afolded pocket for the reception of a pencil and loose sheet memoranda asat 9.

For suspending the calendar in position I provide an. eyeletted opening10 at the top of the backing sheet and through the cover sheet 7, andthe calendar sheets at their bottoms are perforated at 11, theperforations being such that when the. sheets are folded uptheopel'iings 11 will coincide with 'ismaintained in its raised positionby the nail or hook from whiclrthe' calendar is suspended. The coversheet hangs 'down over this memoranda pad to protect the same and at thesame time permits the calendar portion of the sheet to be exposed toview, this arrangement securing privacy ofthe memoranda noted on the upturned sheet. When the calendar is completely used up at the end of theyear the same may be readily folded as illustrated in Fig. 3 and becomesabook which may be filed away for future reference with respect to thememoranda noted thereon. Furthermore, the foldin of the calendar in themanner illustrate in Fig. 3 permits the same to be readily sent throughthe mails.

I claim as my invention: A calendar comprising a supporting back havingat its upper edge a support receiving till Elli? the openings 10 toreceive the supporting .nail or hook 12 and be maintained in theiropening a calendar pad secured in book leaf form to said supporting backinermedinte of its ends, the free ends of the s iee'ts comprising saidpad having an opening therein at. their lower edge to coincide, whenfolded upwardly. with the support receiving opening in said back, and acover sheet for the upwardly folded pad sheets, comprising a sheetdoubled an d having its free ends seeuredat the upper edge of thehacking 10 sheet.
